    I. LOVE. Kombucha!!! :bigsmile: :love:

    I would start with a flavor like mango, ginger or strawberry, because it does taste similar to like an apple cider vinegar drink. However, I can't eat yogurt and it's so good for the intestines!! I highly recommend it.

    LOVE it. Brew my own after getting tired of how spendy it is in stores.

    I love the strawberry! I am pretty sure it helped detox me before I got started on my exercise regimen.

    I like it ok. I brew it at home easily, but mostly my husband drinks it. We always add in some juice or fruit pulp. It has a nice fizzy taste.

    Are you talking about real konbucha 昆布茶 or American kombucha?

    In love with Unity Vibration Kombucha beer--they have Ginger and Raspberry flavors. But yeah, the stuff ain't cheap, so it's more for special occasions...love it.

    Really love it, too. Saw the mixed reviews as to what it can actually do for you - but I can attest to it being tasty & making me feel good. Blueberry's awesome.

    I came in here to say this! Fellow Michigander, I take it? Edit: Wow, they're distributing tons of places now! Good to hear... I guess I'm lucky to be 20 minutes away from them!

    I'm a fan. Not a "die-hard" yet, but any I've tried have tasted sour and vaguely like pop or beer.

    I've tried it 3x, and each time, it made me projectile vomit. NO.
